I usually read a book once through at my normal speed, then go back (if I liked it) and re-read it more slowly.
THETA:
Succubus Heat was great.
The line that made me feel the most was when Georgina admitted she didn't want to make immediate peace with Seth out of pride. I personally could relate. When a relationship ends, i end it with an ax and refuse to look back.
My favorite issue addressed was the question of "Why do people have to make deals with the devil to get what they want? Why can't they make deals with angels too?"
Fantastic and the end wasn't as anticlimactic as the last two. The last two had such a huge build up and then it had like a four paragraph resolution. I like books to end with a bang (and not just the romantic one either, i need action). I also have a weird soft spot for Jerome. Maybe it's the John Cusack look or how he swings between protecting his people and being an asshole. I dunno, but i like him and Carter and Hugh.
One thing i kind of didn't like but was okay with (click to show/hide) was the romantic character suicide of Dante. Ms. Read spent the book making him a good guy even though Georgina's getting together with Seth and then BAM convenient way to get rid of him. He's evil. It just seemed too convenient. I'm not a fan, but it could have been worse or stupider. It was fine really.

About half way through, slowly reading on purpose... no other books coming out until like AUGUST! arghh... (click to show/hide)but so far, I'm liking Seth again. I was getting tired of him... Just can't figure out why they are playing it so coy--hey the time frame window is open, jump on it guys!
